Turkish Airlines (THY) has released its financial results for the first nine months of 2024, showing a significant increase in profits. According to the company's filing on the Public Disclosure Platform (KAP), the company reached a record high with a net profit of 88.9 billion Turkish Liras (approximately US$3.068 billion) for the period.

The number of aircraft in Turkish Airlines' fleet increased by 9% in the first nine months of this year to 467 aircraft. This growth is in line with the company's ambitious plans, including its strategic goal of having more than 800 aircraft in its fleet by 2033, the centennial of Turkish Airlines.
